of course that was fair.

you know just like they have been talking about the college SATs being ‘unfair to certain groups’, the press has determined that interviews for political candidates have also been unfair. So they are being ‘fair and balanced’.

if they had been asking the tough questions to nobama, he would have spewed, frothed up and had his head explode, lost some points in the polls, and that would not have been fair

Exactly. So, Palin is running for VP and gets the tough hard interview.

Barry, who is running for President, gets a “feelings” interview.

This is really strange.

What date is the Biden interview? /s

No I don’t. I happen to think that McCain didn’t foresee this media firestorm, unlike some of Duncan Hunter supporters who purposefully sought to INDUCE it as a strategy. Otherwise, why would he be so pissed about the media treatment of Palin? Then he sends her onto this interview and she can come back and say, “You call that balanced?” All the while he’s wondering to himself, “They’ve always treated me nice. I wonder why?” It’s because he was their kind of republican, a RINO. But this RINO chose an excellent VP candidate, one who is already delivering the ENTIRE election to him. So he has earned my vote.

This is nice but we need the VIDEO. Anyone have it? All I’ve seen is the transcript. If you do, we can whip up a YouTube of this.

The next four years will be more busy than the last four, if John McCain and Sarah Palin are elected. we conservatives will have to remain ever active and vigilant, to keep him from making un realistic deals with the lying, deceiving, degenerate democrats whom he has thought were his ‘colleagues’. They have played him for a fool too many times. He needs to stop being a gentleman with these lying bastards!

Thank you for posting this.

It well illustrates how the MSM are simply cheerleading Senator "Coke-head" Obama's campaign.

Is this for real? Because if it is, it is absolutely outrageous!

I hope somebody does find video, and is able to put these interviews side by side.

Pretentious Arse Gibson: So Sarah. Monkey's butt?
Palin: Excuse me?
Pretentious Arse Gibson: MONKEY'S BUTT!!
Palin: Exactly who's monkey's butt are you referring to?
Pretentious Arse Gibson: Hah ha! GOTCHA!!! (Giggling like a little girl.)

Agreed.

Obama is in a meltdown.

Sarah did very well, and will cream Biden.

My question is why do conservative politicians even talk to these people?

It was so obvious that Gibson in the Palin interview was looking for a “gotcha”. His attitude was haughty and condescending, but Palin handed him with dignity and aplomb.

How many viewers did he lose tonight for his nighty news?

&&
My guess is none. Who would be watching him to begin with? Rats is my guess.

The alternating questions show what a totally different set of interviews Gibson ran. He should be so embarrassed that he goes into hiding on an island in the Aleutians.

I agree, the more the MSM does this, the more they show their true colors and the more people begin to turn them off. Hopefully, this will be the beginning of the end to them. Again, I so hope that we kick serious butt Nov 4. so that we can watch them all cry in their wheaties about the stolen election again!

I think I have figured out why the McCain campaign wanted ABC to do this 'interview'.

First, CBS soiled itself over the Rathergate memo.
Last week, NBC essentially admitted the bias of their anchors by re-assigning Olberdork and Matthews.

I think the McCain camp is hoping that ABC discredits themselves with these interviews. So far, ABC is doing just that.
